Why we at Martin Jewelry can compete with internet Diamonds!

A diamond is more than letters and numbers. It is a work of nature. If I gave you all the dimensions of a woman could you tell me if she is beautiful? NO ! You need to see her. Same as with a diamond. Martin Jewelry lets you examine the diamond BEFORE you buy it, and you can compare to other diamonds. Martin Jewelry provides a selection to choose from. No diamond dealer in the world buys a stone without seeing it! Why should you? Ask the internet site WHERE the inclusion is. How bright the stone is? What is the quality of rough? Is it hazy? All these things translate to value and are not easily discernible to the untrained eye. If you do not know them when you buy a diamond on-line then you do not know if you are getting value Retail prices on a 1ct round F SI1 can range from a $2000 to $10,000. If every F SI1 was the same then people would always buy the cheapest! Obviously there are MANY differences such as brightness, scintillation, position and relief of inclusions that determine beauty.

OUR HISTORY

Darell and Pat Martin have owned and operated Martin Jewelry for 33 years in the historic town of Nebraska City, Nebraska. The store was a continuation of the historic Webering Jewelry store before them that originated in 1912. In this store Darell picked up Jewelry repair which he has continued for around 29 years now, along with the store manager Lori Lewis. Lori has now been with Martin Jewelry for 25 years and also does many Jewelry repairs herself. The small town store has been supporting the community of Nebraska City for many years and will continue for many years to come. After college their son Bradley Martin decided he wanted to follow in the footsteps of his parents, when he decided to open a store of his own in the small town of Shenandoah, Iowa in 1991. That store existed for 13 years and went through a couple renovations and even a merger with a local floral store.

Bradley and his wife Denise then perused some other business opportunities in Kansas City, Missouri where him and his family moved and have lived for the past 10 years. While in Kansas City, Brad and Denise continued to oversee and manage the store in Shenandoah until 2004 when they sold the store and moved on from the Jewelry Industry. In 2012, Bradley returned to the Jewelry industry when the opportunity arose to partner with Jarven Warren the Manager of the highly coveted Jewelry store in Omaha, NE named Hostetters Jewelry. Bradley stayed in Countryside village where the previous Hostetter store existed. This store went through some pretty extensive renovations before deciding it was time to move to bigger and better things.

In August of 2013 the family owned small town Jewelry stores moved into their first mall location ever in Westroads mall of Omaha, Nebraska. Martin Jewelry took over the location of the now nonexistent Brodkey’s Jewelry stores. Moving into a mall definitely had its challenges including hiring many more staff members and adding a lot more inventory than any of the previous stores ever had. Through all the moving and renovating Bradley has went through there has always been one constant though, and that would be the store that started it all in Nebraska City. Martin Jewelry has now been through a lot, but is taking great strides forward and look forward to growing and becoming a very rare family owned store that made it in the mall with all of the giant corporate stores. We hope that you can be a part of the growth and hope to see you at one of our two locations soon!
